Prologue -- Te Quiero, Cariño

THE PREQUEL NOVELLA TO WAR BRIDE

Life has been a struggle for Tomás Araya. Orphaned after the execution of his parents by the new regime of Malaguay, he elbows his way up the ranks of the national army. At nineteen, his life looks bright. A fast-track career beckons in the military, his sweetheart carries his child, and his music is to lift him to the stratosphere.

But the higher you rise, the deeper you fall.

As Tomás's life explodes, he needs to act.

Fast.

One wrong turn, and it's game over.
